The Guardian Film Show podcast: The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Liberal Arts and Sinister

Taken 2 is first on the agenda for Peter Bradshaw and Xan Brooks this week. Liam Neeson reprises his role from the 2008 kidnap drama and he tells our own Andrew Pulver what convinced him to come back for the sequel. Neeson brings all of his customary intensity to the role, says Peter Bradshaw, but it's ultimately quite a silly film.

Next up: The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Emma Watson's latest post-Harry Potter role; Liberal Arts, a hit at the Sundance festival earlier in the year; and the horror flick Sinister starring Ethan Hawke.

This is an audio rip of guardian.co.uk/film's weekly video review show.
